So, is Clayton Kershaw now the greatest Pitcher of all time?

Post season performance this year stepped up.

I still go with Koufax, short career and all

Koufax, 12 seasons 2.76 ERA 2400 strikeouts

JOPE

They are close in ERA and Ks. I think these numbers separate the two

In my opinion, he should be sainted. Best Jewish/non-Jewish pitcher of all time.

He’s the number one starter pitcher in ERA in the live ball era

JOPE

Being in the NL his whole career sure helps that, though.

His ERA is also the lowest when you adjust for ballpark and league average

JOPE

10/28/20 11:46am

Being in the weak NL West compared to the AL East day in and day out matters too

I'm in a small minority. Greatest for me is Nolan Ryan. Childhood hero.

Career era 3.19, on much less rest, ~5400 Inn, ~5700 K, most no-hitters.

Great but not greatest. This WS he got his playoff winning percentage over 50%.

Definitely in the conversation with Koufax, Randy Johnson, Pedro Martinez,

...and Bob Gibson.

Yes

Paige, Gibson, Ryan, Hubble, Feller, Marichal ...

...and Tom Seaver.

I think Pedro is the GOAT (Pedro was a Dodger too, so we still have the GOAT!)

One more world series win with him winning 2 games in that WS then yes.

DazeofBlue

Definitely Top 10. Maybe top 5. Top 3 lefty for sure.

shimmy

10/28/20 11:43am

I'd say top 5 for sure but still behind Koufax and Johnson at least.

scall

10/28/20 11:46am

No, but if he plays well another 4-5 years or more, top 5 or 10 I think.

bruincoug

10/28/20 11:47am

I agree that continued longevity will help his argument

JOPE

10/28/20 11:55am

Those stats are great but he also will never be able to shake the rep of choking

cougarblue

10/28/20 11:47am

Disagree

bruincoug

10/28/20 11:48am

That statement is ridiculous

He’s a good choice, it’s tough to argue against Greg Maddux

JOPE

10/28/20 11:55am

He was great, but from overlapping era, I put Ryan, then Maddux, then Johnson

Nolan Ryan! Come on, Man!
